南京的鸡鸣寺，在我读研究生的时候，它还没有被修复，大概只是一处小小的不起眼的坐落在山坡上的角落里。 那时我都不知道有寺庙的存在，但鸡鸣寺的名字一直都很有名了，我们就住在鸡鸣寺的边上。
傍晚时分常常步行走到玄武湖公园的城墙上，玄武湖公园就会尽收眼底了。和喜欢游玩的表妹一起，那个时候我们是玄武湖的常客。 一直都喜欢江南的小桥流水人家的幽静。当时的南京让我喜欢，也让我忧，冬天的寒气让人止步，五月的梅雨让人急燥。
那个年代北方的街道随处可见的破旧，在这里却是一丝不苟的洁净。夜晚的鸡鸣寺的街道上，一种小型的清洁车，会发出清脆悦耳的音乐声，让清扫街区的工作轻松了许多。
从鸡鸣寺向东，向西方向的北京路上，是遮天蔽日的梧桐树。春天时纷纷扬扬的茸茸，让许多人都有过敏反应，我好像没有任何的不适。
在我们的院子门口，有一家专门印彩色照片的小店，那些年里我们的许多照片都是在这家小店印出来的。
那个时候的生活，不富裕，却感觉就像莫扎特的音乐一样，轻快，活泼，单纯。
那是回不去的流走远去的时光。
[Passer at Jiming Temple] The Jiming Temple in Nanjing, when I was a graduate student, hadn't been restored, it was probably just a small and inconspicuous corner located on the hillside. At that time, I didn't know there was a temple, but the name of Jiming Temple has always been very famous, and we lived next to Jiming Temple.
In the evening, I often walk to the city wall of Xuanwu Lake Park, and Xuanwu Lake Park will have a panoramic view. Together with my cousin who likes outdoor activities , we were frequent visitors to Xuanwu Lake . I have always liked the tranquility of the small bridges and flowing waters in the south of the Yangtze River. Nanjing made me like it, but it also made me worry. The cold in winter made me uncomfortable and the rainy season in May made me irritable.
The streets in the northern cities were dilapidated everywhere, but here they were scrupulously clean. On the streets of Jiming Temple at night, a small cleaning vehicle will emit crisp and melodious music, which makes the work of cleaning the neighborhood much easier.
From Jiming Temple to the east, on the Beijing Road to the west, there are sycamore trees covering the sky and the sun. Many people have allergic reactions to the velvet hair in spring, but I don't seem to have any discomfort.
At the gate of our yard, there is a small shop that specializes in printing color photos. Many of our photos were printed there in those years.
Life during this period was not rich, but it felt like Mozart's music, light, lively and simple.
The time that can't go back flows away.
